good luck with everything.  The tumor burden is outside of Milan and UCSF criteria so many programs in the US unfortunately may not accept you as a candidate.  I know of some patients also going to colombia.

No, I don't have a live donor, I need a cadavers Liver Transplant.  I had a 5.5 mm tumor that responded to Chemo Embo and more than 10 tumors 1.3 mm or less after 3rd Chemo with a half life of 3 months. I haven't got the report back from MRI yet. Those are some very good questions that I might not have thought of until it was too late. Thank you!

do you have any live donors?  How large/bad is the HCC? If you do go overseas you should check on whether your insurance carrier will cover post-transplant and medication expenses after your return to US.  Some may pay, others may not.
